Please join your neighbors at SDOT public meetings this week to support safety improvements on one of Seattle’s most dangerous and crash-prone streets – “I-35”.

  • 294 collisions, 128 injuries and 2 fatalities in the last three years
  • 5 fatalities in the last ten years

We want to see SDOT and SPD succeed in reducing speeds, making it safer for pedestrians and bike riders cross at intersections and for drivers to make left turns. We ask for parallel greenway routes on 34th, and 35th/36th to link homes to neighborhood destinations and commute routes, and a signal at 35th & Graham, to end deaths and injuries.

Driving from Roxbury to Fauntleroy on 35th at 35 mph saves less than 60 seconds over driving it a 30 mph.  Driving at 30 saves lives.

SDOT will brief the community about plans developed after input from meetings earlier in the year. Your support is needed!  If you cannot attend a meeting, please consider sending a message of support to City Council, Mayor Murray, and Jim Curtin at 206-684-8874 or via e-mail at jim.curtin@seattle.gov
